@williampietri "if there are followup questions I have prepared another room, with a separate projector, and the exact same slide, to replay whilst I finish a book."

@williampietri One day the sheeple will wake up (!) and realise blockchain tech is being pushed by #BigDataStorage.

Who makes money off ever growing storage needs, that ideally are replicated across an infinite number of drives...?

BDS.

(I was trying to write this ironically, but reading it back there's a fine line between being ironic about conspiracy theories, and actually just sounding like a proper conspiratard.)

@williampietri

15 years remaining willfully ignorant of something is... not really impressive, everyone does it, it's actually the easiest thing you can do

@williampietri i could use a personal blockchain for my keys and glasses and food budget

@williampietri
No. Only earned money

@williampietri I'll never forget the first time a VP told my team to "put this in blockchain" ("this" being a relational db of logistics data). It's sad that these blockchain bros have sunk their teeth into so many exec positions that they're likely never going away. To make matters worse, this is a preview of what's happening with AI. We're going to be battling these AH (Artificial Hype) trains for decades to come.

@williampietri
I’d like to use block and chain around the necks of these maga billionaire tech bros and throw them off their yachts

@williampietri "oh, are you sure? What if I..." --> No

@williampietri OK BUT

Use a blockchain for audit for digital forensic evidence like screenshots and body cam footage, to prove it's not AI slop.
